Construction of the center was completed before the 2018 soccer season and Sister Lois blessed the fields at the groundbreaking in May 2016, and again at the dedication in September 2018.
Sister Lois has been attending Bennie athletics events since she started teaching at St. Ben’s in 1986. Her faithful attendance at events and dedication to the teams has earned her #1 fan status.
“Sister Lois has been, and continues to be, an incredible supporter of CSB athletics. She brings a smile to the face of everyone she meets,” stated CSB athletic director Anderson Diercks. “Sister Lois has impacted hundreds of female student-athletes throughout the years and we could not be more grateful and honored to recognize her in this way.”
